The FREUND - Gesipa Flipper hand riveter is the modern tool for precise blind rivet connections in metal construction, especially around roofs. Its ergonomic design allows for controlled, fast, and, most importantly, fatigue-free work. The optimized leverage ratio ensures noticeably less effort without compromising setting power – ideal for new construction, renovation, and quick repairs.

Comfort & control in everyday life

The non-slip handle and balanced design help you to position the rivets precisely, even in hard-to-reach places like eaves, parapets, or chimney connections. The collection container gathers the broken rivet mandrels directly – practical, safe, and professional. This keeps the surface clean and reduces the risk of metal shavings in the gutters or on the seals .
